Anthropogenic change alters ecological relationships via interactive changes in stress physiology and behavior within and among organisms

Hammond, Talisin T.; Ortiz-Jimenez, Chelsea A; Smith, Jennifer E (2020)

...Human-induced changes in the stress physiology of one species and the downstream impacts on behavior can therefore interact with the physiological and behavioral responses of other organisms to alter emergent ecological phenomena. Here, we highlight three scenarios in which the stress physiology and behavior of individuals on different sides of an ecological relationship are interactively impacted by anthropogenic change....
Relationships between glucocorticoids and infection with Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in three amphibian species

Hammond, Talisin T.; Blackwood, Paradyse E.; Shablin, Samantha A.; Richards-Zawacki, Corinne L. (2020)

It is often hypothesized that organisms exposed to environmental change may experience physiological stress, which could reduce individual quality and make them more susceptible to disease. Amphibians are amongst the most threatened taxa, particularly in the context of disease, but relatively few studies explore links between stress and disease in amphibian species....
